What's New With the Roland MG2 Series?

The MG2 is more than a simple update to the previous TrueVIS MG platform. Roland has redesigned several core areas of the printer to improve productivity, simplify operation and expand the range of specialty UV applications businesses can produce.

New Industrial Printheads for Faster UV Production

The Roland TrueVIS MG2 Series uses newly developed industrial piezo printheads capable of producing ultra-fine ink droplets at high density.

According to Roland, the new printhead and UV-LED curing system enable print speeds up to twice those of previous models while maintaining the image quality, detail and smooth gradations expected from the TrueVIS platform.

For production-focused print shops, that means the MG2 is designed to handle both high-quality specialty graphics and larger daily print queues more efficiently.

Five Layers. One Pass.

One of the most important advances in the new Roland MG2 UV printer cutter is the ability to produce up to five ink layers in a single pass.

The printer can combine CMYK, White and Gloss layers in one continuous workflow without repeatedly reverse-feeding the media between individual print layers.

This opens the door to sophisticated applications including:

• Double-sided window graphics
• Transparent decals with White underprints
• Reverse-printed graphics
• Spot Gloss finishes
• Dimensional and textured UV effects
• Layered retail graphics
• Premium labels and decals

Producing multiple layers within one pass can also help improve layer-to-layer registration when compared with workflows that require media to be repeatedly repositioned.

New 1,000 mL UV Ink Pouches

The TrueVIS MG2 Series introduces high-capacity 1,000 mL UV ink pouches.

The larger ink format is particularly useful for production environments because it reduces the frequency of ink changes during longer jobs and helps keep the printer operating with fewer interruptions.

Depending on the selected configuration, the MG2 can use combinations of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, White, Gloss, Orange and Red.

Roland MG2 Ink Configurations

Roland offers four MG2 ink configurations, allowing businesses to configure the printer around their primary production needs.

Expanded Color With Orange and Red

For applications where accurate brand-color reproduction and vibrant graphics matter, selected MG2 configurations add Orange and Red inks alongside CMYK.

Combined with Roland's True Rich Color technology, the expanded ink set is designed to reproduce a broader color gamut, improve coverage of difficult brand colors and create more vivid, impactful graphics.

White Ink for Clear and Colored Media

White ink allows the MG2 to print graphics on transparent, metallic and colored media where CMYK alone would lose opacity or visual impact.

Depending on the selected ink configuration, MG2 users can choose either single or dual White ink capability for applications including window graphics, clear decals, specialty labels and layered UV printing.

Gloss Ink for Premium UV Effects

Gloss ink can be used selectively to add shine, visual contrast and dimensional texture to printed graphics.

That allows shops to move beyond traditional flat graphics and create premium effects that can be seen and felt.

Roland MG2-300 vs. MG2-640

Both Roland MG2 models share the core MG2 printing, cutting, UV ink and automation technology. The primary difference is production width and overall machine footprint.

Who Is the Roland MG2-300 Best For?

The Roland MG2-300 offers the MG2 platform in a more compact 30-inch configuration.

It is particularly well suited to businesses focused on applications such as stickers, labels, decals, specialty window graphics, packaging prototypes and short-run customized graphics that do not require a full 64-inch production width.

Who Is the Roland MG2-640 Best For?

The Roland MG2-640 expands the platform to 64-inch media, making it better suited to businesses producing wide-format signage, banners, retail displays, larger window graphics, backlit graphics and other applications where additional media width provides greater production flexibility.

Integrated UV Printing and Contour Cutting

The MG2 remains a true UV print-and-cut system, combining printing and precision contour cutting within a single machine.

For applications such as stickers, decals, labels and shaped graphics, integrated contour cutting helps simplify production by reducing the need to move printed work to separate finishing equipment.

The MG2 supports cutting speeds of up to 11.8 inches per second and uses Roland CAMM-1 series cutting blades.

Automatic Media Setup and One-Touch Calibration

Roland has increased automation throughout the MG2 production workflow.

The new system incorporates automatic media loading and one-touch media calibration to help reduce manual setup requirements when loading new media.

These features can be particularly useful in production environments with multiple operators or frequent media changes, helping create a more repeatable workflow from one job to the next.

Intelligent Media Take-Up Included

A media take-up system is included with the MG2 Series, allowing long roll-to-roll jobs to be collected automatically as they print.

The intelligent take-up workflow works alongside the printer's automated media handling features to support longer unattended production runs and help keep finished media organized.

7-Inch Touchscreen and Direct Print

The MG2 introduces a 7-inch touchscreen interface designed to make everyday printer operation easier and more intuitive.

Roland's Direct Print capability also allows prepared VersaWorks jobs to be accessed from the printer workflow, reducing unnecessary movement between the printer and RIP workstation during repeat production.

Automated Maintenance for Reliable Production

Reliable UV printing depends on consistent printhead and ink-system maintenance, particularly when working with specialty inks such as White and Gloss.

The MG2 includes an enhanced cleaning system designed to reduce routine operator intervention while helping maintain stable print quality and production uptime.

This automation is especially valuable for busy shops where the printer needs to remain ready for production throughout the workday.

What Can You Print With a Roland MG2?

The combination of UV-LED curing, specialty inks and integrated contour cutting gives the Roland TrueVIS MG2 Series considerable application flexibility.

Roland highlights applications including:

• Stickers and decals
• Product labels
• Banners
• Window graphics
• Backlit signage
• Retail and point-of-sale graphics
• Packaging and packaging prototypes
• Transparent graphics
• Dimensional UV effects
• Spot Gloss graphics
• Interior décor graphics
• Tradeshow and promotional displays

The Advantage of UV Printing

Unlike print technologies that rely on extended drying time, the MG2 uses built-in UV-LED lamps to cure ink as it is printed.

This allows completed graphics to move quickly into contour cutting and finishing while also enabling specialty applications that traditional CMYK-only printing cannot produce.

White and Gloss inks add additional opportunities for transparent media, dimensional effects, tactile graphics, premium labels and other applications designed to stand apart from conventional signage.

VersaWorks 7 Included With the Roland MG2

The TrueVIS MG2 Series includes Roland VersaWorks 7 RIP software for preparing and managing print production.

VersaWorks provides tools for job setup, color management, contour cutting, specialty ink layers and print-queue management while keeping the MG2 within Roland's established production ecosystem.

Roland DG Connect

The MG2 also works with Roland DG Connect, Roland's cloud-connected printer management platform.

Roland DG Connect can provide visibility into machine status, production activity and printer performance, helping operators monitor equipment and identify information that may affect production uptime.

Roland MG2 Warranty and Support

The TrueVIS MG2 Series is backed by a one-year Roland DGA warranty along with Roland dealer and manufacturer support.

Roland requires registration within 60 days of purchase and exclusive, continuous use of Roland DGA-approved inks to qualify for applicable warranty coverage.

Extended service contracts may also be available for businesses that want additional coverage beyond the included warranty period.
